[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I urge all parents to read the posts about kids being unhappy with their kids’ college options and had they known that except for the very top kids, TJ college applicants generally do worse than had they likely stayed at their base school. [/quote] Truth. But if you have a kid who wants incredible opportunities with a (mostly) motivated peer group, TJ will be the jam. But yes, it does make college applications a bit more challenging bc they are competing "against" each other for those spots. Our kid is a junior and while it will now be harder for her to get into UVA, we know she is SUPER prepared for school in a way that she might not have been at her base. (Of course you can be successful at the base schools too, our kid has said she isn't sure she would have worked as hard at base while at TJ it was sink or swim. So she swam.)[/quote]
